Neil, who was practising as a trained
art therapist before his ordination, also spoke of his work with
abused and traumatised children in Uganda, using art to enable them
to express and confront their experiences which are often suppressed
and so damaging.
Brightly coloured tissue was used to help us see the
associations that colours hold for us, and praise God for the wonder
of His creation and the variety of such amazing technicolour. We
then used the tissue to create our own pictures of one of four different
aspects of love (maternal, friendship, passion and God's love) and
to guess what our neighbours had depicted. We had fun and also found
much hidden talent among our members!
Donations from the afternoon went to "Help
For Uganda" to enable Neil to purchase more art materials for
his return trip to Uganda later this summer
